> Key: HUDI-3290
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HUDI-3290
> Project: Apache Hudi
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: metadata
> Reporter: Vinoth Govindarajan
> Assignee: Prashant Wason
> Priority: Major
> Labels: user-support-issues
>
> For BigQuery and Snowflake integration, we can't able to create external
> tables when the partition folder has a non-parquet file
> `.hoodie-partition-metadata`.
> I understand this is an important file to find the .hoodie folder from within
> the partition folder, the long term solution is to get rid of this file, but
> as a short term solution if we can convert this to an empty parquet file and
> add the necessary depth information in the footer, then it will pass the
> BigQuery/Snowflake external table validation and allow us to create an
> external parquet table on top of hudi folder structure.
